About this artwork
"Marilyn Sunset" is a striking silkscreen portrait by Shepard Fairey, based on intimate photographs of Marilyn Monroe taken in 1956 by renowned photographer Milton H. Greene. Blending glamour and vulnerability, these works offer a nuanced interpretation of one of modern culture's most iconic figures through Fairey's inimitable visual language.
Marilyn Monroe has fascinated me since childhood. I was probably ten years old when I asked my father,… "Why is Marilyn Monroe so famous?" He replied something like, "Well, she embodied American beauty and hope. She shone brightly, but she tragically died young." Intrigued, I watched Marilyn's films whenever they came on television. Seeing her on screen, I was mesmerized by her charm, her humor, and her vulnerability. I may not have been able to express it clearly at the time, but Marilyn possessed a range of emotions.
